(The Center Square) – Gov. Gretchen Whitmer could face criminal charges for her policy that placed COVID-19 positive patients in the same facilities as nursing home residents, Macomb County Prosecutor Peter Lucido said.
Lucido said people who lost loved ones to COVID-19 inside nursing homes should take death certificate information to local police and make a wrongful death complaint.
Lucido questioned if Whitmer was liable for possible damage caused by the order since she decreed it unilaterally without the legislature.
